Dissolution Test in Approving the Generic Drugs
Requirements:
Life Cycle of the Generic product ( SUPAC)
Robust Rugged, highly discriminating dissolution Methods (OGD,DBE)
Minimum 12 units to be tested (both innovator and Test Product)
Minimum 3 to 4 times sampling with equal spacing other than Zero Time for Immediate Release Products more for Extended Release Tablets
5
Merits of Dissolution Studies – Approval Process(CMC)
1. In vitro dissolution testing is an important tool for development and approval of generic dosage forms.
2. Routinely used for stability and quality control purposes for both oral and non-oral dosage forms.
3. Reduces the Regulatory Burden for approval by reducing the clinical without sacrificing Quality

Dissolution Method for Generic Product
Decision tree for ANDA sponsors to select a dissolution method for their generic product
7
Decision Tree for Extended Release Dosage Form
Decision-tree for ANDA sponsors for submitting dissolution testing data for an extended-releasesolid oral generic drug product. {“Common blend”: A batch of final blend that can be packed in differentamounts providing various strengths of the capsule product. Multimedia: lower pH, e.g. 1.2; medium pH, e.g.4.5; higher pH, e.g. 6.8 and water}

Dissolution Testing and BCS BasedBio-waivers

Bio-waiver for Rapidly Soluble Drugs
Ref.:Food and Drug Administration. Guidance for industry: waiver ofin vivo bioavailability and bioequivalence studies for immediaterelease solid oral dosage forms based on a bio-pharmaceuticsclassification system. Rockville, MD: US Department of Healthand Human Services, FDA, Centre for Drug Evaluation andResearch; August 2000.
21 CFR part 320 address the requirements for bioavailability (BA) and BE data for approval of drug applications.21 CFR part 320:22 address the waivers
Solubility Dissolution Intestinal Permeability
BCS Classification
Class 1 – High Solubility, High Permeability
Class 2 – Low Solubility, High Permeability
Class 3 – High Solubility, Low
Permeability
Class 4 - Low Solubility –Low Permeability
10
Dissolution – Bio-waiver BCS Class I
pH 4.5
pH 6.8 without Intestinal Enzymes
pH 1.2 –0.1 N HCl
without Enzymes
85% of the Drug Release in 30 minutes using Type I @ 100 RPM Or 85% of the Drug Release
in 60 minutes using Type II @ 50RPM
If BE to the reference listed drug has been establishedfor the one strength (generally the highest) of a generic drug product line then, as per FDA’s General Guidance on Bioavailability and Bioequivalence for Orally Administered Drug Products (BA/BE Guidance)
11
Bio-waiver for Generic BCS Class I
Dissolution can also be used to support applicantrequests for bio-waivers for various strengths of a modified-release (Modified Release) drug product line.
In this case, the DBE ( Dept. Of Bio Equivalence) may decide that it is unnecessary to conduct in vivo studies on one or more strengths based on acceptable dissolution performance, proportional similarity among strengths, and an acceptable in vivo study on one (generally the highest) strength.

Components and composition
Levels of change: Likelihood of impact on formulation quality and performance
Level 1: unlikely to have detectable impact
Level 2: could have significant impact
Level 3: likely to have significant impact
15
Components and composition
Level 1 changes: Quantitative only (except IR: colour, flavour, ink; MR: + preservative).
Level 2 changes: Quantitative more than Level 1, plus any change in excipient grade (MR: + change in excipient specifications).
Level 3 changes: Quantitative More than Level 2, plus addition or deletion of an excipient (except for a colour, flavour, ink).
Level 1 changesAddition or deletion of a colour or flavour, or change in an excipient (or preservative (MR))Changes less than the following table level 1 column (expressed as percentage of the total formulation)[Note that total additive effect should not exceed 5% of total target FPP weight]
16
Composition – Level 3 Changes
Any change beyond level 2 OR:
Any level 2 change for a BCS class 4 (low solubility and low permeability) or narrow therapeutic drug
Drugs not meeting the level 2 dissolution testing
For both level 2 and level 3 changes, therapeutic range, solubility and permeability are factors to consider.

Recommended documentation – level 1/2
Requirements for level 2 include stability testing, dissolution testing and possibly an in-vivo study (depending on the results of dissolution testing). IR guideline: the dissolution testing required depends on the BCS class of the API.MR guideline: the dissolution testing depends on the type of release of the FPP.
Requirements for level 1include Stability testing: one batch on long-term stability data reported in annual report.Supportive dissolution data: noneSupportive in-vivo bioequivalence testing: none
19
Recommended documentation – level 3
Requirements for level 3 include stability testing, dissolution testing and an in-vivo study.

Summary of SUPAC
SUPAC does: discuss relative changes in formulation discuss supporting data to support a change give an idea of how to consider various changes by looking at the
change coupled with the API characteristicsSUPAC does not: substitute for critical thinking (e.g. formulation changes for
modified release products)
23
Manufacturing Change

Validation Range - Mixing Time, Blending Time
• Recommendation One Batch on Long Term Stability
Level 2• Change in
Mixing Speed –within Validated Range
• Recommendation One Batch on Long Term Stability & Dissolution
Level 3• Change in
Manufacturing Process – Wet to Dry Granulation
•Recommendation One Batch on Long

Drug Dumping due to Alcoholic Beverages
25
HydroMorphone – MR Dosage Form – Drug Dumping
1. Modified Dosage form – Steady Release of Drug.2. Sponsor of ANDA must study the effect of Alcohol along with the RLD and
submit the data3. RLD and Sponsor Product ( ANDA) to be subjected to dissolution in 0.1N HCl
along with - 0%,5%,20% & 40% ethanol ( Every 15 min one sampling over a period of 120 min)
Ref : FDA’s ACPS Meeting, October 2005 Awareness Topic: Mitigating the Risks of Ethanol Induced Dose Dumping from Oral Sustained/Controlled Release Dosage Forms

DESI Drugs Approval
27
History of Drug Approval @ USA
Drug Approval Based on the Safety Only at USA(1938-1964) Kafauver Harris Amendment to D & C act at USA NAS ( National Academy of Science) and NRC ( National
Research Council) – Responsible for Drug Efficacy Study DESI Implementation at USA & DESI Drug List Prepared Equivalent Code of AA started
28
Dissolution Test – Other Oral Products
29
Other Oral Dosage Forms
Suspensions can be considered to be similar to disintegrated forms of solid formulations.
DBE generally recommends the use of USP apparatus 2 (paddle) at 25 or 50 rpm for suspension.
Liquid Filled Capsule Containing the lipophilic Drug – DBE recommends “Rupture test”& release of the content into the media
Chewing Gums – In-vitro drug Dissolution Test – Complex system
30
Non Oral Dosage Forms
31
Non Oral Dosage Forms
For non-oral dosage forms the test is referred as “drug release” rather than “dissolution”
It is essential to have the efficacy testing as part of the Dossier development.
DBE and FDA encourages the Sponsors to develop methods ( discriminating) Type 4 Flow through is recommended Ointments, Creams, Lotions – ANDA –In-vitro Dissolution Study will not be a
surrogate for in-vivo ( However Franz Cell diffusion study for the SUPAC in semisolid)
